This book is an accessible introduction to the rise of the Indian freedom struggle between the Great Revolt of 1857 and the attainment of Independence in 1947.
It has the essential virtues of its genre in that it is written in a clear readable style ... Heehs appraisal of the British record is inevitably critical, but not unbalanced ... one feels that the book deserves a place in schools - in Britain as well as India.M.A. Laird, Asian Affairs. June 1992
